    Well that review of The Likeness is far more positive than mine on Euro Crime. Wonder if we read the same book?

    Ah yes, Maxine ... but then, we all know you're a whi-cracking dominatrix who is unusually hard to please. Mmmmm ...

    Cheers, Dec

Declan Burke has published a number of novels, the most recent of which is ABSOLUTE ZERO COOL. As a journalist and critic, he writes and broadcasts on books and film for a variety of media outlets, including the Irish Times, RTE, the Irish Examiner and the Sunday Independent. He has an unfortunate habit of speaking about himself in the third person. All views expressed here are his own and are very likely to be contrary.
